Time flies really fast. :-/

I woke up really early today, around 0730. Haha :-D After taking a bath, it was straight to Math. I gave myself a time practice and completed only Paper 1. Then, I went around the house and I started on Geography with the radio switched on to 98.7FM. Heeehee :-D Geography is a killer. I still have quite a number of chapters to go before I can officially declare that I've completed my revision for Geography.

-

I feel scared. Scared of the exams and worry about my results at the end. I really don't know. I mean, streaming is very important. It plays a part in our future, that's why it's so crucial. I feel scared and unprepared for the future to come. Even though, everyone seems to be telling me that I can do it, and I need not be afraid of my results, I still feel uncertain and scared :-}

-

I've got something random to share.

And that is, I have another ambition and that is I want to work on a ship when I grow up. Haha :-) Maybe I can be the captain, the one driving the ship. That will be so cool! But when I told Mom about it, she said that it'll be leaving my family because for one trip, I may be away for a few months and back only for a little while & off I go again. Thinking about that, it's quite sad also, cos' I don't want to be far away from my family. But come to think again, working on a ship is really fun and interesting. I bet there'll be loads of adventures everyday and we can interact with people of different races, culture and nationality. It will be so fun and it's a good experience too :-)

-

Saw W once more, after tuition had ended. Base on my inference skills, W should be taking Mr Chin's classes on Sat, the same timing as my Math tuition. Haha! :o) Oh yes, something good to share too. I've asked Mom if I can go to church together with Grace after EOYs and she agreed! Haha :-) She said if you want to go and see and expose yourself, then go ahead. I'm so thankful that my mother is open-minded and respects my view :-D I've always wanted to go for a church service and see what it's actually like. And also, at the same time, to learn more about God's word :-D



Magandang Gabi, world! (It actually means good night in Tagalog-Philippine dialect)



5 More To Go :-D

Literature paper had been fine. But all the relationship btwn Dara and Jantu did not come out for the paper, and I memorised them really well. Wait, for the essay question I managed to write some of my memorisation words in there. Haha, about the 2 special & powerful clay marbles :o) Just let God do the rest & focus on the rest :-)



"You must count yourself lucky when someone corrects you. Or else, when you're doing the wrong thing and nobody corrects you, you'll think that you're right and you'll sink deeper and deeper" quoted from Lit teacher during yesterday's lesson.

-

It was during Chemistry lesson that this unfortunate event had to happen. Speaking from my heart, I really did not want it to happen either. However, if I did not report you, regarding the handphone, I'm afraid you'll sink deeper into your wrongdoing and that will be terrible. I'm sure you abhor me now, but I have no choice but to do it. You're my classmate, my friend and I care about you. I do not hope to see any of my friends leading life the wrong way, the wrong path.

"This is what I learnt from history-bias judgement." I have no rights to control what you have to say but I can face my conscience and confidently say that I am not bias. Yes, I saw C using her handphone today, and yes she's just right infront of me. I did tell her to switch it off. But she didn't and I wanted to report her too, but Ms Liang was giving us instructions on what to do, and later when I wanted to report her, she had gone to the washroom, she had escaped. If you're reading this, I sincerely hope that you'll understand the circumstance and my reason for doing so.

-

Right, I didn't have the chance to blog about some interesting or shall I say crappy words during Literature yesterday, so I shall do it now. It's never too late :o)

Ms Loh was giving us some effective words/emotions to use for our Lit exam. The word "unassuming" caused an uproar amongst the whole class. She told us that the definition of it is the opposite of a proud person, there is no airs. I have no idea who started it,but airs and **s. Yeah, it sounded the same but I don't know why the thought of the other word came through their brains. Haha :-O

Yes, I forgot how Ms Loh came to the topic of homosexuality. Well, she said that homosexuality is actually the evil spirits at work. I don't really agree with that, I think it's more of the mindset and the environment of the person and sometimes the words that friends or people say to them, that causes them to become homosexuals. There's 1 thing that I agree totally, the world is getting more and more open-minded. Like what Ms Loh said, in older times when a couple whose son is a gay, it's actually very shameful and the parents will chase them out of the house, but now, parents actually invite the gay partner over for dinner.

What's happening to us, Man and the world out there? I personally feel that it isn't good to be open-minded all the time.



Its not stress that kills us, it is our reaction to it. -Hans Selye

After tuition today, I had KFC together with Sister & mother. Well, Mother told us something really interesting. It was about one of my aunt's love life when she was young. Beside us, there was a couple and Mother recognised the man. It was then that she told us how the man is related to my aunt's husband. If she had chosen somebody else, I guess she'll be leading a much more luxurious life now. Haha, but who knows what came over her, love is blind as what some people say :-)

Just caught Da Chang Jin & I Not Stupid 2 (tve serial)

I Not Stupid 2 is really comical & a little lame. But the young boy is so cute. Haha! He kept talking about his apple growing soon. ^____^



; The Battle Begins

Today had been a nerve-wrecking/panicky/fast day

-English compo & letter writing
-Chinese compo & letter writing

The papers weren't that bad, except for Chinese. In the end, I still did gong han, majority did si han. Well, I guess it's okay, hopefully the result will be fine. The compo is the worrying one, I did the last question, some situational writing. My plot is simple, and a little close to what I experience in school.

It's over now.

Got to study hard for the next few papers coming ahead!

FOCUS



Shades of Blues

Piano exam was bad. - Whatever the result is, I'm to be blamed for I'm asking for it. I must admit, I wasn't really serious and prepared for the exam, until a few days ago.

I just hope that God will see me through this, and everything will turn out fine. (Pieces weren't smooth, a scale was played wrongly, sight reading was horrendous (as usual) :-( ! )

Yesterday's English Oral was a little okay. I got MrsOng .(previous CT) The passage had been good. It was the conversation section that I wavered. The questions were a little tough, especially the first one.

I think I've done pretty well for my Chinese Oral. Even though for the passage, I did not know how to read 2 words, but for the conversation section, I talked a lot and of course, relevant stuffs.


Monday- Saw W again. I guess W has joined back.



Exams stress

Haha, smtg really interesting caught my attention during Contact time today. FT & CT were telling us about the timetable plans and how we should study, find the way that we study best. What caught me was," Also treat other nicely. I know the exam period is coming and everyone is feeling stress. When you're feeling stress, you tend to be very quick-tempered. Remember to treat each one nicely."

Together with A, E & C, we went to the Library to look for the Eurasian book. After don't know how long, we only managed to find the Chinese & Indian cultures book. Both books are not relevant to our topic: EURASIAN! Ahhh~ I'm super frustrated with the library. We search high and low, many many times, we still couldn't find. The Net gives me irrelevant informations. How? I think for Wed's presentation, we are going to stare at each other. Kidding kidding. No matter what, I'll try my best to search for the information :-)

We didn't really do much for IT. Everyone did the climax survey. I've already done it at home, so I was just looking around, helping Amanda :o) After doing, we continued with our project. It's really tough. All the frames and scenes, buttons and shapes. It's driving us mad. Haha :-) We don't have much time left to complete it though, Mr Quek said that we have to hand it up at the end of Oct.

Oh yes, for Mega Camp this year, we are going to M'sia! Whee~ I can go overseas! Haha :-) I'm really looking forward to the camp ^____^



Crazy Sunday -_______*

My revision hasn't been coming along great. I totally feel behind time. Everyone seems to have studied their History and Geography. But I have only started on Science. I had better work harder. (Man, I've been telling myself that for don't know how many billion times, but I still don't work hard enough.) Haha -______^

Science tuition had been alright. Fine, I guess. However, I wasn't paying my fullest attention to Mr Chin, for I felt tired. When I reflect back, I feel kinda bad. Not paying my 100% attention, thus not really absorbing what was being taught today :O}

Anyway, when I went back home. Guess what was the first thing I did. Revision? Take a nap? TV? Haha, none of the above. It was FOOD! When I think about it, I feel guilty all over. Recently, I've been eating lots of junk (tidbits, potato chips, chocolates) and I never exercise! I couldn't control myself. You know, this afternoon, after I start tasting the first potato chip, I almost finished the whole can. Fortuantely, I didn't. (only like half a can) Then, I went to the refridgerator to search for other food. The next thing I knew, I was eating chocolates. Gosh, I'm eating all the bad food, no good for my body. But it taste nice. Haha! It tastes so good that you just cannot stop eating it. I think I've gained 1kg from all that junk? Haha :-D

Anyway, yesterday, my mom's classmates or I can say, close friends came over for a gathering. There was a lady, whom we address as Auntie Yellow (she loves the colour yellow), she introduced me to smtg really nice! The 12 Girls Band music is really superb. I love the piece: Freedom. It's really nice! I'm addicted to it. Haha :-D 12 girls band is actually a band who plays songs using chinese instruments like the guzheng, er hu, yang qin etc. They are fabulous! Really cool! *____*

Exams are round the corner. Which corner?

Weekends are here, which means that it is time for us to do some studying :)

Yesterday's weather was cold, freezing cold. Plus, its the best weather to sleep! Haha :-D I felt a little tough to pay attention, but still, I managed to for certain periods of the day.

For Chemistry, Ms Liang went through some questions and she gave us 2 sets of Chemistry revision paper. The paper had quite a number of mistakes & I feel that some of the phrasing sounds weird. But still, I manage to do it :-) We had music in 2D2's classroom. Ms Tan played some CDs and asked us to identify the techniques used to play the piece. She said its similar to the things that O Level music will do. During LIVE lesson, almost everyone wasn't paying any attention to what Mr Go was saying ( demotivation factors). Everyone was busy with their precious & beautiful papercut. I guess Mr Go got a little frustrated in the sense that no one was actually listening to his words because he asked," When do you all have to hand up your papercut?". Haha ;-) After speaking, we were given some time to do our papercut. Alright, for the next period, Ms Deepa came over to clear our doubts for Bio.

Time passed quickly and straight after LIVE was Art. Our doom period. Haha :-) Some of us have not completed our papercut. Some are only starting to add in the colours. So everyone was like, die la. Fortunately, Mrs Ow did not come yesterday and Mrs Wong told us that the deadline was postponed to next Thursday. Everyone felt relieved. Thank goodness I finished it the day before yesterday, and I need not bother about it anymore until next week when we are going to hand it up :-)

Chinese lesson was super noisy. Especially Paddy, Sarah and Richa's area. I can say, they were not really paying attention to the lesson. I could hear a lot of talking. Forget about that, I find that the way Wang Lao Shi teaches now has improved. He asked us to find the words and then explain it. If we are not sure, he'll do the explanation. I think this is good :-)

After school, I had the Design & Tech project to do and Christmas Service meeting. What's sad for the Design & Tech project was that I couldn't find the book that has all the information. That blue book on the cultures of Eurasians. It has all the information that we need for the project! Ahhh!!I felt really frustrated. I search & searched for so long, but I couldn't find that book. At least, we did some slides for the powerpoint -thanks to Pearlyn & Jin Hwee. Thank you, you all did a splendid job! :-D

Have a good day ^____^



Ups & Downs...

My class was supposed to have PE today, but in the end we did not for our teacher was absent today. So, I was extremely lucky, for the second time, because I had forgotten to bring my PE attire. I feel really lucky. Still, I must come up with smtg to remind myself that I must bring my PE attire. I guess, I shall tell my friends to remind me, or I just write it down in my diary. Haha :-)

Emily's (not the real name) words (during an incident) really struck me today. It was during our Lunch period. I was having lunch together with a few classmates & all of a sudden, someone(I forgot whom) told me about a fanciful earstick on Emily's ear. As a prefect, I did my duty, I told her to take it out. She did. But when I told her to throw it away for I know for sure that she'll put it back, she retorted," It's my money leh!" At that point of time, I felt unrepsected. I had some feelings which I don't know how to describe.

Honestly speaking, I don't know why students have to pierce so many ear holes. I just don't understand why can't they just adhere to instructions and just do what is right for them. Is it really nice with so many ear holes? I don't think so. Plus, is there a need for so many ear holes? I don't think so either. It really gets on my nerves ( at times) when I repeatedly tell them about their ear sticks. I tell them nicely, but they still ignore my advice. (not all the time, sometimes they do listen). I don't know if the problem lies with me or them. Am I taking the wrong approach of tellng them? But I thought a soft approach is always better.

Math extra lesson today had been fine. I thought it started at 1530 but it actually starts at 1500. So, when Wen Xin & I entered, I got a shock. There were so many students sitting down, silently doing the paper. I was wondering, " Are we late?" In fact, we were. Haha :-) I shall remember the timings correctly the next week. Blur me. I guess my luck has run off during the afternoon. Haha!

7 more days to EL Paper 1. EOYs are coming really fast. Like bullet train.

Oh yes, speaking of bullet train. It was during Design & Tech lesson. We were doing research on the materials used. Little did I know that I was occupying myself by exploring A.Chong's pencil case. Haha :-) She has got smtg really interesting in her pencil case- correction tape. Don't belittle this small non-living thang, it actually shoots like a bullet train! Haha :-) The tip of the tap just come shooting out when you push a black button. It's really cool & funky ;-)



Getting nearer & nearer to EOYs

School has been good, so far. (even though I feel kinda stressed up due to the frustrating Design & Tech project- the Net gives us nonsensical informations, + papercut + revision) Anyhow, stress is never ending. We must cope with that no matter what :-)

Duty has been interesting-looking for people who came late and have yet to submit their appeal letters. After being in Analogic for 2 weeks plus, I find the warning/punishiments quite intersting and unique. Copying the "Virute of Punctuality" article. The article is ultra ultra long. Haha! 3 parts and each part is like 1 page plus.

Something to be happy about. I feel good after piano lesson today. Personally, I find that my performance today has improved. However, my scales got to be more legato. I'm glad I fared well during today's Aural. I got to work harder towards my practical. Mr Lee asked me to aim for Distinction. Well, I do not know if I can meet the target, to me, Merit is enough :-) But it's good to aim high ain't it? So you'll work much much harder so that you know that you'll meet your target. (I sound so ironic) Haha :-D

My family has got 2 new members! And they are...2 huskies! Haha :-D They are Myra & Zara. I don't know if I should excited about it. Having a pet or not, it doesn't really affect me. But, they look pretty. And I heard from my sisters that their eyes are different in colour. So unique :-D (Btw, both are females) Oh yes, and this morning, when I went to the shoe rack to take my shoes, I got a shock when I turned around. I saw the dog's poo poo. Haha! Daddy is toilet-training them. Hopefully they'll learn it soon :-)



It's A Happy Day :-)

School re-opens tomorrow. It's tomorrow, haha! As usual, I feel excited. However this time, I feel excited despite the fact that I have not done much revision. Haha :-) Weird ain't I? I guess I had better go and look through some Lit text or revise some other subjects later, or else I'll be feeling so pressurize when school re-opens tomorrow with everyone asking me ," Anna, you study until where already arr?". To me, it's a norm to ask that question, but sometimes it gets rather infuriating when asked too many times. Haha ;-)

Stop talking about school for the time being.

I feel proud of myself for I've read quite a lot for the past few days. (after the trip to Cheng San Community Library). I've already completed 1 book and two-thirds through in another. Haha :D
Another book to go after current one -Crushed by Laura & Tom McNeal

You know, sometimes I really do fancy how's life life while studying abroad. So far, from the books that I've read, (it's about some high school/college kinda thing, & the usual romance stuff) I find that life abroad is kinda relaxing and you can go over to your friends house anytime you want. I guess there are more freedom over there. Haha :-D I feel happy with the way I am now, the amount of freedom that I receive. I feel blessed :-)

Had some crazy moments with Amanda a while ago. It's really funny. Sometimes we get along so well, tease each other & just have fun. But at other times, we shout at one another and just ignore each other. Haha :-) Come to think of our arguments, it's quite silly actually. Haha! I guess that's what sisterly love is about, yeah?

Get ready for school tomorrow, everyone :-) Turn on your engines. Haha :-D

It's going to be a BRAND NEW DAY!

:-D



SNIP SNAP SNIP :-D

What will happen on the first day of school?

• Richa will skip the first day... and probably the second

Back to the Neighbourhood Clinic

The pain of my ingrown nail is hurting more and more each day. So, today, I went back to Dr Tan (the first doc that I consulted), and he removed part of my nail for me. Small surgery, not painful for I was being given some anasetheic jabs. After 2 weeks plus of pain, it's finally gone! Haha :-D







A Visit to TTSH

I just came back from TTSH. Reason for going there: Infected toe (L), suspected ingrown nail.

At first, I went to the Walk-In Clinic. I was gazing around and I spotted a notice, saying that, "This clinic does not see children under 16 years of age." Immediately, I informed Mother then we headed to the A&E department.

I felt a little nervous and scared over there. I was wondering what will happen to my toe after consulting the doctor. Oh yes, you know the majority of the guys that I saw there, they had tattoos on their bodies- hands and legs. One army guy, even had tattoo on his whole left arm. What's the most unique thing is, the tattoo is a spiderweb (at the elbow). Cool uh. Then I told Mother about my observation and she said,"Tattoos aren't good, you know after you remove it, you'll have a scar on your skin. The complexion will not be smooth anymore." So people out there, tattoos are not cool. Think twice before you do anything to your body!

After waiting for an hour or so, it was finally my turn. The doctor who attended to me is a Phillipino. He said that the infection is actually ingrown. At first, he wanted to remove the whole nail. Minor surgery. However, in the end, he decided not to. He prescribed me some antibiotics and painkillers for the week. Next minute, I knew, I was being referred to a bone specialist. I don't know when is the appointment. I hope it's soon. Real soon, cos' piano exam is in 2 weeks time.

Experience in the Operating Theatre (OT):
It's really really extremely cold inside. I was lying down on the bed and I couldn't help but to start shivering, despite wearing a jacket. Goodness, I don't know how the medical officers can tahan the cold. Anyway, the OT is the same as what I see on television programmes, the operation light, the equipments. The medical officers are dressed in blue. It's quite cool actually, to be inside the OT. But, of course, it's not cool to undergo some kind of surgery.

Why must I have this kind of toe? :-{

Anyway, been to Singapore Expo-John Little Mega Sale, this morning together with family :-) Mother thought that there will be something that she's going to purchase. In the end, we ended up buying different flavoured chocolates. We spent a total of $23 on chocolates! Haha :-D How crazy is that?

Alright, then we headed to Hougang Mall. It was me, who suggested that we go there. I just had a feeling to go to the library. It's been ages since I went to a library. Haha :-D Lazed around, borrowed 3 books and I'm proud to say that I'm two-third done with a book. Normally, I take extremely long to complete reading a book :-) Not to forget, I've got 2 new collar shirts! I feel so happy :-D

Overall, a happy day! ^___^



Just Not The Perfect Day :(

A few hours ago, I finally get a feel of how a person feels when he/she has tried their very best in accomplishing something, but failing to see the fruit of their hardwork. It feels bad & totally unpleasant.

It happened during piano lesson. I've been practising for 2 hours today. I forced myself to memorise all the scales & arpeggios. Later in the evening, it was lesson time. Pieces were good, commendable effort put in. Scales & arpeggios, however, were a huge disappointment. I've practiced so hard in the afternoon, and in return, I got scoldings. I must say, when I played it infront of him, I wasn't as good as when I practiced at home. Shaping was missing. Volume wasn't there. I felt super angry with myself at that point of time. I just felt extremely horrible. After lesson ended, Mr Lee said, "Actually, today you've played quite well. It's just that my expectations are high". At that point of time, I was on the verge of tears. I just couldn't take it, for I've practiced so hard today and this is what I get.

Well, after reflecting on what happened, I guess I just have to work ultra-hard. Maybe his expectations are high cos' exams are round the corner. (In 2 weeks time)



IRKSOME INFECTION >:(

Been to the doctor this morning, due to the infection on my left toe, again. It's the same old thang. Doctor said to cut my nail straight when it grows out. The issue here is that, my mom has tried to let my nail grow out, but it led to this infection. I really don't know what is happening to my toe. I just hope that the cream work wonders.

Happy Teacher's Day!

Yesterday marked the last day of August, & the last day of Term 3. Assembly started late thus, subsequently, the event was being pushed back. Still, we had Teacher's Day celebration & Aces Day. Haha! The steps were just so hilarious, i.e. wave, tap, robot (I feel as though I'm doing some karate moves), funky fish and a few more. But I felt that the most funky part was the making of the music. Drums absolutely rock! I only did the workout for about 10 mins or so, then off I went for duty, together with Lina. Duty was horrendous. It was because I didn't know what time the sec 1s were supposed to make their way to the Main Hall. Anyhow, everything still turned out fine. I managed to catch a few glimpses of the concert. Funny and surprising :)
During the debrief, I sensed that the EXCO & Mrs Loo were really disappointed in us. No initiative. No responsiblity. As I reflect upon the things that happen, I don't think I've done a good job. Eg. dismissal of the girls

For results, I'm maintaining it but I've slightly dropped in some subjects and vice versa.

English: 63(T2), 70.2 (T3)
Chinese: 70.9(T2), 66.8(T3)
Math: 74.7(T2), 73.3(T3)
Science: 77.5(T2: Bio), 79.5(T3: Chem)
Geography: 78(T2), 66(T3)
History: 87.2(T2), 70.2(T3)
Literature: 68.7(T2), 71(T3)
Design and Tech: 80(T2), 80(T3)
Art: 77(T2), 80(T3)

Overall percentage for T3: 73
Compared to last term's overall percentage, I've dropped by 2.2%. No matter what, I still have to work harder in order to get to the stream that I want next year :) Jia you!

The day before yesterday which means, 30th August, was the Sec 3 combination briefing. Before everything started, all of us had to arrange 450 chairs. Tough and challenging I must say. After everything, everyone was wet with perspiration. Haha! My super uber active sweat glands again. Ok, then came the big fish. At first my duty was to usher at the Main Gate. But, it was switched to Refreshements i/c. Thankfully Zi Qi was there to help me out. Trash bags. Haha! We took 5 trash bags from PB room and we overturn some chairs to make temporary rubbish bins. It was then, when we tried to fit all 4 corners of the chair, that we found out that our trash bags were too small. Mr Go came along, and he tried fitting it, but it tore. In the end, we just had a triangular shaped garbage bin. Haha :D Later, I went to help out with registration. Sitting at the back of the hall, together with Grace, Esther, Malar, Darveenia and Amanda. I don't know what happened to me la, but I was serious at that time. I kept shushing them up cos' they were too noisy. I felt irritated. But, I managed to chill at a later part ;) Been pondering over which combination I should choose. I want to get into science, of course. Haha :) Maybe Pure Phy and Chem and Pure Lit. :)

Someone's Watching Over Me- Hilary Duff

So I won't give up
No I won't break down
Sooner than it seems life turns around
And I will be strong
Even if it all goes wrong
When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe
Someone's watching over me

It doesn't matter what people say
And it doesn't matter how long it takes
Believe in yourself and you'll fly high
And it only matters how true you are
Be true to yourself and follow your heart

Isn't these 2 stanzas meaningful, & encouraging?
